EAST MOLINE, Ill. – Brandon Durbin found a way to win his second straight J&J Camper Sales IMCA Modified feature Sunday evening at East Moline Speedway.
Durbin bested Travis Denning in another classic battle.
“Me and Denning had quite the battle there,” Durbin said in victory lane. “The car was too free in the center, but once I got it straight I had good traction.”
Durbin started in the front row and held off Denning lap after lap, with both cars on the cushion off turns one and two.
“It was extremely slick on the bottom,” Durbin said. “There wasn’t much there. I figured if I got out front, got up top and held that line, I’d be alright.”
Andy Nezworski, Jim Sandusky and Anthony Guss rounded out the top five.
R.J. Gonzales also made it two-for-two by dominating the County Waste Systems IMCA Mod Lites 15-lap finale.
Jon Padilla chased, but had to settle for the runner up spot. Anthony Guss, Mike Morrow and Brandon Freeburg followed.
Chuck Hanna took off from the front row and paced all 25 laps of the Eriksen Chevrolet IMCA Late Model feature.
A late race caution adjusted the running order as early leader Dustin Schram came across second followed by Matt Ryan, Jacob Waterman and Gary Webb.
Logan Veloz had redemption on his mind and put his machine in Legacy Corporation IMCA SportMod victory lane, leading all 15 laps.
David Engelkens, Erick Turner, Doug Burkhead and Matt Speidel followed.
Jeff Struck waited out multiple cautions and sped away from the Dynamic Power Street Stock 15- lap field.
Opening night winner Joe Bonney, Rob Nylin, Kyler Hickenbottom and Jim Rutsaert followed.
Randy LaMar beat Michale Putt, Donnie Cole, Josh Lane and Nathan Smith in a wild Rudy’s Tacos IMCA Hobby Stock 15-lap ender.
Drew Wise won the 12-lap Riverbend Pizza Place Sport Compact battle, outrunning Nick Proehl, Cyle Hawkins, Steven Rangel and Travis Hawkins.
